We just got some lousy news from the folks at Dubé Juggling…looks like they lost their lease, haven’t been able to find a new space, and will be putting everything into storage indefinitely until they figure out how to resume operations. Established in 1975, Dubé Juggling is one of the most well-respected juggling prop manufacturers in the world, and their equipment is used by Cirque du Soleil, Penn and Teller, David Blaine, Ringling Brothers Circus, The Big Apple Circus, and many, many more.

Dubé Juggling Equipment and Troo Hoops has lost our lease. We will be moving our entire inventory and equipment into storage and suspending operations until future notice. At this time, we do not have space or a specific timetable for resumption of service, but notification will be made on our websites and by email.

If you need equipment, order as soon as possible. Orders will not be shipped after December 30, 2013. Our last day at 520 Broadway will be January 6, 2014. We will be open every day until January 6, packing and moving. We will be open for retail sales with limited staff – sales will be limited to whatever stock is available and not yet moved into storage. Act accordingly!

YoYo Store REWIND is offering up one last deal for the holidays….New Year Lucky Boxes!

Japan has a special year-end tradition called the lucky bag (fukubukuro) where merchants fill bags with goods and sell them for huge discounts. The only catch is you don’t know what’s in your bag until you open it! REWIND is continuing this Japanese tradition and offering our lucky boxes to the entire world, filled with a mystery selection of yo-yos and related goodies. This year we’re limiting the quantity of our Lucky Boxes to 30 only. For the price of $50, you’ll receive over $150 worth of merchandise. Only one thing is guaranteed, you are getting lucky! But wait, there’s more! Three VERY Lucky Boxes will contain a C3yoyodesign Krown, REWIND staff and 1A World Champion Shinya Kido’s signature model!!

In addition to the special Lucky Boxes, we’ve applied an automatic 10% discount to everything store-wide for 48 hours only! Whether it’s a for a last minute or late gift, or something for yourself, don’t miss this last chance to get a discount on all the yo-yo goods you need to carry you through to the New Year. Sale starts at 0:00 midnight, December 24th, and ends at 0:00, December 26th PST (California Time).

If there’s one thing we can take away from 2013, it’s that C3YoYoDesign put out the most amazing catalog of product and player promo videos of any company out there. A lot of companies did some really amazing stuff, but as far as just straight-up promotional videos, C3YoYoDesign put everyone to shame.

And here we have their last video for the year, featuring a good chunk of their Asian team rocking out with the Speedaholic, one of the best plastic yoyos released this year. Featuring Peter Pong, Ethan Wong, Jackey Li, Ng Wang Kit, Shinya Kido, and Mimi Thian.
